Now lemmy is flooding me with corporate propaganda? Good on the company for doing the right thing, but when I see this same headline in multiple communities on here, it reminds me of reddit.
Is it propaganda, though? How about we celebrate the few nice things going for us and just enjoy it for a second. We should be praising this regardless of our ideals because the world is very far from ideal.
Yeah, it probably is propaganda. Costco has been doing some cartoonishly shitty union busting recently for which they received a ton of backlash. Now, suddenly, we're all supposed to be on their side because they said "DEI is good"? IDK, it might just be me, but that rings a bit hollow from a company that has a long (and very recent) history of doing shit like "changing the locks on union bulletin boards so the reps can't put up any notices".
